Sure, the Motley Crue drummer has calmed down a bit since his rock 'n' roll heyday in the '80s and '90s. But as we learned when he chatted with our own Steve Spears and Sean Daly, he still embraces his role as the band's biggest wild man.

"I'm pretty much that guy, you know?" he said. "After the show's over, we usually have a big party in my dressing room 'cause I basically have a club sound system, a huge PA system. Everyone parties and dances around and gets crazy. Yeah, it's always nuts back here."

Motley Crue, Poison and the New York Dolls perform at 7 p.m. Wednesday at the St. Pete Times Forum in Tampa. Tickets are $25-$95. Click here for details.
